13: Chapter 13 Su Lianxue Gets Hit
Gate of Yuanxu Mountain.
Lin Ming and the other two appeared here.
Under Yu Yaoqin's constant pestering, Su Lianxue could not withstand her "offensive" and ultimately chose to go to Ming Mountain City with them.
As soon as the three appeared, they attracted the attention of many Disciples, though the main focus was naturally on Yu Yaoqin and Su Lianxue.
"Damn, who is that? So pretty. Our Sect actually has such a beautiful woman, and I didn't even know?"
"Nonsense, of course you wouldn't know. The one on the left is Yu Yaoqin, the daughter of the Peak Master of Hidden Sword Peak, and the other is Su Lianxue, one of the only two people to join Zichen Peak."
"Su Lianxue, is that the Genius with Nine-and-a-half-segment aptitude?!"
"That's right."
"No wonder she's so beautiful."
"Such a beauty, if she could become my Dao Companion, how wonderful that would be."
"You can only dream about it; she probably wouldn't look twice at you."
"..."
Whispers arose, and they were basically all about Su Lianxue and Yu Yaoqin.
As for Lin Ming, he was subconsciously ignored by the crowd. Of course, some recognized Lin Ming's identity, but their attention was completely captured by Yu Yaoqin and Su Lianxue.
Regarding this, the three of them didn't really care.
"Boom..."
A roar sounded above the crowd, shifting many people's attention from the two women to the sky.
A medium-sized spirit boat slowly descended from the air and stopped in front of them.
"This is one of our Sect's spirit boats, a Tier 5 Origin Weapon, the red swallow."
Yu Yaoqin introduced it to Su Lianxue.
After the spirit boat landed, a middle-aged man walked down, his gaze sweeping over the crowd.
"Same old rules, show your token to board."
The middle-aged man said.
The token the middle-aged man mentioned was, of course, the proof required to board the spirit boat. There were two ways to obtain this proof: one was by carrying out Sect missions, in which case the proof would be issued by the Sect for free passage.
The other way was to purchase it with Origin Stones.
Lin Ming and the others were naturally the latter, and Yu Yaoqin had long prepared for this, having purchased three tokens in advance.
After handing the three tokens to the middle-aged man, the three of them successfully boarded the spirit boat.
"Senior Brother Guyuan."
After Lin Ming boarded the spirit boat, he saw a middle-aged man standing at the bow, whom Lin Ming happened to know.
"Junior Brother Lin Ming, this is a rare sight."
Guyuan noticed Lin Ming's arrival and said with a smile.
This Junior Brother was basically always at Zichen Peak and rarely went out; it was indeed rare to see him out.
"Going to Ming Mountain City to buy some things."
Lin Ming nodded and said.
"This must be Su Lianxue, the one with the Nine-and-a-half-segment aptitude."
Guyuan's gaze fell upon Su Lianxue.
"Greetings, Senior Brother."
Su Lianxue said with a hint of respect.
"Junior Sister."
Guyuan also nodded and said.
He was merely curious about her.
He also knew that she was destined to become the new Prodigy of their Yuanxu Mountain.
Of course, that was on the condition that the person at Zichen Peak could teach her properly.
"I need to operate the spirit boat; we'll chat later."
Guyuan said.
"Senior Brother, please go ahead."
Lin Ming nodded.
The three of them found some random seats and sat down.
Before long, the spirit boat was full.
A blue, transparent light barrier enveloped the spirit boat, and then it took off, slowly lifting off the ground and flying rapidly towards Ming Mountain City.
"Junior Sister Su Lianxue, I am Guan Xiong, a Disciple of Shangyang Peak."
A Disciple walked up to Su Lianxue and introduced himself.
"Hello."
To this, Su Lianxue replied quite coldly.
From the other party's expression, she could roughly guess his intentions, so there was no need to pay him much mind.
"Junior Sister Su, could we get to know each other?"
Guan Xiong asked.
Su Lianxue's coldness only served to stir his desire.
"No need."
Su Lianxue rejected him very bluntly.
This caused the smile on Guan Xiong's Face to freeze, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Su Lianxue's refusal was so direct that he was left at a loss for what to do.
"Then I won't disturb you."
After a few awkward seconds, Guan Xiong quickly left.
"Junior Sister, you're quite popular, aren't you?"
Lin Ming teased Su Lianxue.
Even now, there were still many gazes falling intentionally or unintentionally on Su Lianxue.
It was evident how lethal her beauty was to these men, especially with that Nine-and-a-half-segment aptitude of hers; if nothing went wrong, she would be a rising star of their Yuanxu Mountain.
The only pity was that she had joined Zichen Peak.
"Senior Brother, how long until we reach Ming Mountain City?"
Su Lianxue asked.
"It should take a little over an hour."
At the speed of the red swallow, it would take them a little over an hour to reach Ming Mountain City.
"It's fine, Junior Sister. With me here, leave them to me."
Yu Yaoqin saw that Su Lianxue didn't like being harassed, so she said this.
"With Junior Sister Yu here, there's indeed no need to worry."
Lin Ming teased.
Given Yu Yaoqin's personality, there was indeed no need to worry about this aspect.
After all, in some respects, he had to yield three points to this lass.
At this moment, a rather handsome-looking man walked over, followed by several other men.
"Han Zicong, what do you want?"
The moment Yu Yaoqin saw this man, she spoke up directly.
Her gaze fell upon Han Zicong, showing clear hostility.
"Junior Sister Yu, I would like to get to know Junior Sister Su Lianxue."
Han Zicong said with a kind smile.
His gaze bypassed Yu Yaoqin and landed on Su Lianxue.
Su Lianxue ignored Han Zicong's gaze directly.
"She doesn't want to get to know you, so why don't you go find somewhere cool to stay."
Yu Yaoqin didn't give Han Zicong any Face at all.
She had said she would help Su Lianxue block these people, and she would do it; Yu Yaoqin was a woman of her word.
"You are not Junior Sister Su, can you make decisions for her?"
Han Zicong continued.
"Nonsense."
Yu Yaoqin said unkindly.
"Junior Sister Su, I am Han Zicong of Lingxiao Peak. I wonder if I might have the honor of getting to know you?"
Han Zicong said directly to Su Lianxue.
Su Lianxue continued to ignore him, not even glancing at him, as if he didn't exist.
"Alright, she said she doesn't want to know you, so stop bothering my Junior Sister here."
Yu Yaoqin said to him again.
Han Zicong ignored Yu Yaoqin, his gaze falling instead on Lin Ming, who was beside Su Lianxue.
Lin Ming noticed Han Zicong's gaze, and their eyes locked.
However, it only lasted for less than a second. Lin Ming turned his head away first.
He had no interest in men. He didn't have any strange hobbies either.
"Then, sorry to disturb you, Junior Sister."
